And below is a news report regarding rap “music” (NOT!) I’ve been waiting for – a crack in the dam so to speak. I thought it would never happen. Thank God!
Notice how the six year rap period corresponds with the Bush presidency. Coincidence??? Insanity cycle???
Perhaps this snub of rap is an indicator the American psyche is in full recovery mode (but probably not). “Crazy Americans” is not just a favorite epithet the rest of the world uses to describe us. There is a basis for proof.
Historically each decade acquires a descriptive tag as it ends, i.e. the roaring twenties, the fabulous fifties, the sexy sixties, the rocking eighties, etc. Will this decade be known as the criminally insane oughts? How about the psychopathic oughts? Any other suggestions?
It has been said the terrorist attack of 9/11 has revealed America at its best. I think the opposite.
The savvy among you will understand when I say Ralph Nader certainly deserves a lot of credit for this mess.
